Going with a 3/8" spacing, parallel strings. A6 and D13 tuning. Looking for pickup recommendations. If I had the budget I would have Lollar Stringmasters on the A6 neck and a Lollar Chicago Steel and CC set on the D13 neck. Don't have that kind of budget though. Considering Alumitones. Readily available and affordable. What would be other options for a more classic sound?

Vintage Vibe makes some good pickups at a reasonable price.

Looked at them as well. His CC's are nice but they're wound like a p-90 not a CC. His stringmasters are just as spendy as Lollars (not complaining just can't swing them).

I like Jerry Wallace Truetones. I favor the wide mount.They ares really toneful, and quiet for a single coil.

I had definitely considered them. Do you know where I could find dimensions for them?
